No matter what you do you'll never get them all. I don't know how they do it but rocks are more profilic breaders than rabbits. If you've got 10,000 rocks today and get rid of them, another 20,000 will come back to see where their buddies went....Seriously they make buckets that are designed specifically to pick up rocks in loose soil that are pretty much a mesh of heavy bars that keeps the rocks in while the dirt can get back out. The problem with them though is they are made for looser soil and it sounds like your wanting to remove them from a field of hard dirt. If your wanting to get them out without loosening up the surface the only way I know of is to go around and prying them out and pick them one at a time. If anybody on here knows of a better way to get them out of hard soil please let me know also. My yard sounds just like the field this guy is trying to mow, that's why I'm so familiar with the breeding habits of rocks....
